"Mrs. Addie Strange of Kendall, (Whatcom Co.)WA. furnished this brief sketch of her husband, Samuel Adams Strange's,  family:
"Samuel Adams and brothers Charlie and Will of Blue Rapids, KS were sons of Samuel Strange of Halifax Co, VA.  Samuel had seven brothers, (1) MARTIN,  (2) JOHN C.,    (3) PAUL,  (4) JOSEPH,  (5) CALVIN and (6) ROLLAND.  Their FATHER WAS HENRY STRANGE, he lived in Campbell Co, VA, not far from Lynchburg.  Henry Strange's father is reported to have come from Scotland and to have been related to Sir Robert Strange, the Artist of London.  Martin is said to live in Alabama,  John was killed in the rebellion, Paul died in Missouri, Joseph died in California, Rolland lived in Kansas.  (7) BEN lives in Colorado and Calvin is thought to be dead.  A nephew of Samuel Adams named Samuel T. lives in Montana.  Samuel Adams has two children W. L. and Charles A.  Both live in Tacoma, Wash."   (Iva Campbell, d/o Francis Marion Strange.)

1851 Jul 14:  Samuel Adams Strange born.  (Source Sharon Capezza and. Janet Stone of Ballsbridge, Dublin Ireland)

"Samuel Strange b.1849 or July 1850 in Halifax Co or Carroll Co, VA.
He moved with his parents first to Kentucky and then to Blue Rapids, Marshall County KS, and relocated to Kendall,  and then Nooksack, Whatcom, WA."  (Excerpts from STRANGE OF HOWARD pg 210  by John Mayer)

The birthdate of 1849 would not be consistent with the 1850 Carroll VA census, because Samuel Adams is not listed with his father in that census.   However the 1860 Washington twp, Doniphan,KS census where he is listed as age 11 does fit an 1849 birth. (Dave Minson)

Janet Stone of Ballsbridge,Dublin Ireland is listed as a source for Samuel Adams Strange in the Ancestral File.  She lists his father as William Strange. She shows him  b. 29 Jul 1851, Bigelow KS, died 22 Sep 1925 Kelso WA, Married to Sarah Trosper b. 16 Oct 1859 Bigelow, KS died 9 Jun 1943, Thurston WA.  Son Charles Surat Strange b. 10 Sep 1885 Marshall KS.

Sarah M. TROSPER was born 16 Oct 1859 in KS. She died 9 Jun 1943 in Thurston Co, WA. Sarah married Samuel Adams STRANGE Jr. on 1 Jan 1881 in Marshall Co, KS.

1881 Jan 3:  Samuel Strange Jr 29 md Sarah M. Trosper 21,Marysville, Marshall Co.
(Sharon C saw the doc in Marshall County on his mg to Sarah Trosper, but not the ones on his marriage to Adella.)

(In 1880 census there is a Tom Trosper 31 and Sarah 26 KY.)

There is a marriage record for Samuel Strange Jr age 29 m/ Sarah M. Trosper age 21 on 1 Jan 1881, Marshall Co, KS.
This very well could be Samuel Adams Strange.
Iva Campbell notes " Samuel Adams Strange -- Mrs. Addie Strange of Kendall Washington furnished me with thies brief sketch of her husband's family.
"Samuel Adams and Brothers Charlie and Will of Blue Rapids, Kansas were sons of Samuel Strange of Halifax County VA.....Samuel Adams has two children W.L. and Charles A.  Both live in Tokoma, Washington"

In 1900 Census S. A. Strange is listed as a turnkey (guard) in Washington State prison, Walla Walla Washington. Shows him as married 0 yrs.  In the same Census Adella Strange is listed in Kendall, Whatcom, WA  vol 20 ed 238 sh 3 line 93. She is listed as head of family with William S. and Charles S Strange (stepsons) and from birthdates this is shown to be correct family.
She is 25 yrs old ,b. Nov 1874 TX. married 1 yr 0 children.

Also 1900 WA census, Turnwater pct, Thurston Co. Vol 8 ed 223 sheet 9 line 18 is Sarah Strange (b. Oct 1859 KS) living alone, divorced, 2 children, 2 living. This strongly suggests that Sarah Trosper Strange md Samuel Adams Strange, had two sons William and Charles, moved to Washington divorced and  there Samuel md Addie or Adella.
